Sub-Billion, Super-Frontier: Small Language Models Rival Zero-Shot Frontier LLMs on General and Literary Relation Extraction

Large language models (LLMs) achieve strong relation extraction (RE), but their computational demands and reliance on proprietary APIs limit deployment in resource-constrained or privacy-sensitive settings. We investigate how far small language models (SLMs) can close this gap across general-domain and literary text.

Domain-Adapted Small Language Models with Hybrid Post-Processing: Achieving Cost-Efficient, Low-Latency Multi-Label Structured Prediction via LoRA Fine-Tuning on Scarce Data

arXiv:2606. 05781v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deploying frontier large language models (LLMs) for domain-specific structured evaluation tasks often incurs substantial latency, cost, and data privacy overhead.

LLMs or Naive Bayes? Old Gems or New Ways

The paper compares Complement Naive Bayes (NB) with zero‑shot and few‑shot large language models (LLMs) across a wide range of model sizes and text classification tasks. NB outperforms LLMs when labeled data is available, achieving comparable accuracy to large LLMs while running thousands of samples per second on a CPU. In zero‑data sentiment settings, LLMs still dominate, but NB remains the best choice for resource‑constrained HPC practitioners, and the authors provide a Kubernetes Helm operator to automate model selection.

Domain-Specific Hallucination Detection in Large Language Models

The paper introduces a multi‑signal pipeline for detecting hallucinations in large language models, combining fine‑tuned DeBERTa‑v3 classification, Monte Carlo Dropout uncertainty, and temperature‑scaled calibration. On the HaluEval benchmark it achieves high performance (F1 = 0.915, AUROC = 0.977) across QA, summarization, and dialogue, and shows that 25 % of training data yields 77 % of full‑data performance. The authors also demonstrate that applying Direct Preference Optimization to a Qwen2.5‑0.5B generator cuts hallucination rates from 85.5 % to 37.7 %, and that domain‑specific fine‑tuning (PubMedBERT on SciFact) outperforms general‑domain models for biomedical text.
